Can Proflo+ be used on its own?
It depends upon the process that has created the wastewater as to whether Proflo+ can be used without a product from our Proco range.
Generally, if treating water that has been used to clean or collect paint, stain, lacquer, PVA, NDT, or other type of coating or treatment then Proflo+ shouldn’t be used on its own but used with a coagulant which would be needed to separate contaminants from the water in order for the Proflo+ to collect the separated particles for filtration.
If, however, the wastewater has been used to collect solids or dust from a cutting process, for example, then it may be possible to just use the Proflo+ as, technically speaking, the waste is already in a particle form so the Proflo+ can pull them together for filtration.
